Or tar and wget it. Once downloaded, git checkout will complete things. DigitalOcean.com, Atlantic.net, iwStack.com, as well as Goog and Amazon have suitable offerings which would cost less than USD1 for the hour or two it would take for the clone and gc. (A swap file may be needed for some of the hourly plans to complete the gc.) -JimC -- James Cloos OpenPGP: 1024D/ED7DAEA6
